The Structured Packing Column OperatiX - 09 is a glass column, 750mm high and 50mm in diameter, fitted with structured mesh metal packing. This Structured Packing Column uses corrugated flow channels to create high surface area contact between fluid phases with low resistance to gas movement. It is engineered for absorption and distillation, particularly in low pressure and low irrigation rate applications. The column includes 3 input ports for laboratory setup.

Key Features
Construction and Design
The Structured Packing Column OperatiX - 09 is built as a glass column, 750mm in height and 50mm in diameter. It contains structured mesh packing made of metal. The packing is made up of corrugated sheets of perforated embossed metal or wire gauze. Fluids travel convoluted courses through the sloped flow channels created by the packing structure. This open structure provides high surface area for contact between phases while offering low resistance to gas movement. The column includes 3 input ports.
Q: What is the Structured Packing Column OperatiX - 09 used for?
A: It is used to demonstrate absorption and distillation using structured packing, which provides high surface area contact between fluid phases.
Q: What is structured packing made of?
